许多倡议已经制定，以促进老年人参与体育活动（PA），并记录其好处。一个例子是Texercise，一个为期12周的项目，重点是提高参与者的自我效能。本文的目标是通过阐明多个利益相关者所感知的Texercise实施经验来增强PA计划实施和传播的知识基础。我们进行了28次半结构化的利益相关者访谈，并将回答分为四个预设主题：（1）计划交付和宣传;（2）计划的价值/优点;（3）提供和维持计划的成功/挑战;（4）加强实施和交付的建议。我们通过进一步分析确定了新出现的子主题。出现了许多广泛适用于社区组织的观念。我们的研究结果强调了利益相关者的支持时，嵌入PA计划在社区的重要性。此外，这些发现对于理解支持广泛计划传播和可持续性的基本过程至关重要。
Many initiatives have been developed to facilitate older adults’ engagement in physical activity (PA) and document its benefits. One example is Texercise, a 12-week program with a focus on increasing participants’ self-efficacy. The goal of this paper is to augment the knowledgebase of PA program implementation and dissemination by elucidating the experience of Texercise implementation as perceived by multiple stakeholders. We conducted 28 semistructured stakeholder interviews and categorized the responses into four preset themes: (1) program delivery and advocacy; (2) value/merit of the program; (3) successes/challenges of offering and sustaining the program; and (4) recommendations for enhancing implementation and delivery. We identified emergent subthemes through further analysis. Many perceptions that are broadly applicable to community organizations emerged. Our findings highlight the importance of stakeholder support when embedding PA programs in communities. Furthermore, the findings are crucial to understanding underlying processes that support widespread program dissemination and sustainability.
